Okay here's a link to the photo that ended up in my high school '64 yearbook. The shutter clicked as a hysterical voice on the intercom announced JFK's assassination. November 22, 1963

Yes it does, though we thought we were pretty dang smart. Looking at this pic brought in a flood of memories. I wondered about the kids I went to school with and what happened to them. Then I realized it is highly possible the majority of them are now gone. I do know some never made it to adulthood because they died for nothing in Vietnam. Sad and mad all at the same time.

You do look totally in shock like Mike is not even there.

You were a pretty little thing.

Ha! It's been a long time since I looked at that pic. I can see my youngest grandson in my face. He is now older than I was then. :-)
